MPC "Redemption Group"
This seems to be a little known / discussed feature - the "redemption group". I have quite a lot of miles that I want my family members to be able to use, has anyone used this feature before? After I "nominate" them, can they just simply use my miles as they would if it were on their account, or is there some special procedure?
Thanks in advance
Thanks in advance

either you let them know of your details that the MPC/AM agent would use to identify your account, or you do the booking for them,

No... I've tried this. I have a Credit Card which accumulates the most miles. My wife always flies with me and only gets her 'flying miles'... She's in my redemption group. I've asked this same question... needed 80K miles for her redemption, she had 40 in her account... tried to use it with 40 from my account.. they said no. I had to pay to transfer them into my account, or pay to transfer 40 from my account if I wanted to use them. It's quite expensive to do...

I know you can use up to 5 names, but they can fill up fast when you add parents, etc.
